Where Do I Start?

I have been trying to enter the blogging world for quite some time but haven't quite found my niche yet. So I've decided to be me and that's all. I'm a mom of two. I'm a wife. I'm a nurse (although a burnt out one). I'm somebody who has moved so many times in life that I'm not sure how to stay in one spot for very long. I've changed jobs about every 2 years since I left college. I've changed churches a few times in the past several years due to either moving or just getting antsy and wanting something new. My husband and I have been married for 9.5 years and have lived in 7 different homes in 4 different cities during that time! Growing up my dad became a pastor when I was 16 years old, before I got married I lived in 5 different states. Some people are scared of change but I'm scared of staying the same!

For the past 4 years we have lived back in my husband's hometown. Besides college, which I don't really count since my parents moved 3 times while I was in college so going "home" for breaks was always a new experience, I have not lived anywhere for a 4 year period in about 17 years! So, as I try to make myself a real home and learn to accept staying put I am going to blog about my adventures in mommy-hood, and try to learn how to be content in whatever life brings!

My blog name stems from my past dreams that have come true, my current dreams which I hope to come true and whatever my future dreams are. I have always wanted to be a wife and mommy and those happy dreams have come true. I have always wanted to be a stay at home mommy who gets to be very involved in my kids' lives. That is only partially true now and continues to be a current dream (I will get into that more on a later day). I also dream my kids will grow up to be happy and successful, that dream will take many years to occur as they are only 2 and 5 years old! I also have started a business on the side, currently I have started painting children's wall art but if things go well I plan on expanding that business into other art/craft areas.

Hopefully my blog will entertain those who read it. My life is FAR from perfect, I am definitely not June Cleaver! I look forward to getting to know you as readers well. If you stumble across my blog, I would love for you to follow me and I will do my best to follow you back if you have a blog as well!
